Mobile Crisis Intervention with CCS's Family Behavioral Health
System provides a creative and innovative mobile crisis response to
children and youth who are in the midst of a mental health crisis.
The crisis clinician may meet with the child and family in a
hospital emergency room, in community settings or in the home. A
mobile crisis clinician has a flexible work schedule to ensure the
crisis team's ability to respond to community crisis needs. Often
both the child and parent are in distress, and need a clinician who
can calmly listen with empathy, while clinically assessing the
situation. When responding to a child in an emergency department
the crisis clinician works closely with family members and hospital
emergency department staff so that the family experiences
consistent and integrated care. Once all family members are ready
to move forward, the clinician, youth and parent(s) then work
together to develop a plan for safety and stabilization that will
allow the child to safely remain in the most normative environment
possible (preferably the child's own home). This position will be
based out of the Family Behavioral Health Salmon Creek office,
located in North Vancouver. This position requires scheduling
flexibility to meet the needs of youth and families served. The
services we offer will be provided in community-based settings and
in family homes. This unique way of working allows clinicians the
opportunity to offer a high level of collaboration, coordination
and intensive behavior health services while allowing room for
creativity and needs driven work. Emphasis is on achieving
incredible outcomes with children, youth and families by actively
partnering with them along with their natural and community
services and supports to achieve long term safety and stability in
our neighborhoods and communities. A full job description may be
shared with candidates selected for an interview. WHAT WE ARE
